Check the image-adjustment settings
Adjust these additional settings to improve send-fax quality:
●
Sharpness: Clarify or soften the image. For example, increasing the sharpness could make text appear
crisper, but decreasing it could make photos appear smoother.
●
Darkness: Increase or decrease the amount of white and black used in colors in scanned images.
●
Contrast: Increase or decrease the dierence between the lightest and the darkest color on the page.
●
Background Cleanup: Remove faint colors from the background of scanned images. For example, if the
original document is printed on colored paper, use this feature to lighten the background without aecting
the darkness of the image.
●
Automatic Tone: Available for Flow printers only. For original documents that have at least 100 characters
of text on the page, the printer can detect which edge is the top of the page, and it orients the scanned
images appropriately. If some of the pages are upside-down in relation to the other pages, the resulting
scanned image has all pages right-side-up. If some of the pages have a landscape orientation, the printer
rotates the image so that the top of the page is at the top of the image.
